The plaintiffs’ brief asked for the return of all expenses incurred during the campaign period. It said that since the Elections Commission is under the jurisdiction of the council, “the council should be liable for the expenditures lost due to its malfeasance of duty.”
In a unanimous decision, the court agreed that the council was guilty of malfeasance, but decided that it would be more equitable to pay the expenses of the candidates in the fall election than to (Continued on page 2)
Noted scientist to talk on gay life tomorrow
“Everything You Always Wanted To Know About Gay Life, But Were Afraid To Ask,” will be presented by Dr. Evelyn Hooker, a scientist, tomorrow at noon in Hancock Auditorium.
Dr. Hooker, a nationally acclaimed scholar on homosexuality, will speak on the topic on behalf of the Gay Liberation Forum.
The GLF once had interim acceptance by the university which would have allowed it to sponsor Dr. Hooker’s appearance on campus. Because of administrative restrictions, her appearance will now be sponsored by the ASSC.
Dr. Hooker has taught at UCLA since 1939 and presently has a private psychological practice in Westwood. She has been a past recipient of the UCLA School of Medicine’s Woman Scientists of the Year Award and is chairman of the Task Force on Homosexuality for the National Institute of Mental Health.

Campus Security will soon be established as an independent unit within the university, Elton Phillips, vice-president for business affairs, announced yesterday.
In listing projected reforms in the university’s security procedures, Phillips said that Campus Security will be separated from the Operations and Maintenance Department, which it is now under, and it will be given more autonomy.
“The director of Campus Security will report to my office under the new plan,” Phillips said. “We hope this reform will strengthen the authority of Campus Security.”
The finance and budget committee of the Board of Trustees has already approved the change in organization, and the plan will go into effect upon the appointment of a new director for Campus Security.
“We are looking at two or three candidates for the director's post, but no one has been appointed yet,” Phillips said. “However, we hope to have the new director by the end of this summer.”
The new director will have general supervision of security operations, but he will not conduct these as a uniformed officer.
Victor Sargent, the current security chief, will continue to assist in Campus Security operations under the new director but will carry a reduced workload.
“We are not getting rid of Sargent in any way,” Phillips said. “Sargent is nearing retirement, yet in a different capacity he can help the new di-
rector get started.”
However, no specific role under a new director has yet been assigned to Sargent.
Sargent, a 20-year veteran of the New York Police Department, has been chief of Campus Security almost continuously since his arrival at USC in 1957.
In addition to the selection of a new director, Campus Security will be relocated from the Operations and Maintenance Department building to another headquarters.
“We are leaving Campus Security offices in their present location for the time being, however,” Phillips said, “because we have not yet been allocated any funds for this purpose.”
Phillips hoped the relocation would be completed in time for the new director’s appointment.
The two major reforms in Campus Security were included in 22 recommendations by a special subcommittee that was appointed last year from the membership of the university’s Student Activities Committee.
The 12-page report was completed January 6 and sent to Paul Bloland, vice-president for student affairs. In its report, the subcommittee examined four general areas—the role of campus security officers; responses to specific security problems; weapons, uniforms and equipment; training and explanation of roles.
NEW DIRECTOR SOUGHT
Security autonomy planned
Dr. Hooker is also the author of “The Hooker Report” on homosexuality in which the federal government spent $1.5 million in its research.
Her speech will cover present and past findings on homosexuality, causes and prevention, the question of homosexuality’s relationship to mental illness and scientific findings for and against homosexuality.

HERITAGE OPENS TO PRAISE
Heritage Hall (pictured above) opened yesterday with few problems and much praise. Even though some of the phones did not work, the unanimous opinion given by the people roaming the halls
was that the building is great. "It's what we've been looking for for years," said assistant Coach Marv Goux, the offensive line coach for the varsity football team.

The Student Court, after finding the ASSC Executive Council guilty of malfeasance of duty, has recommended that the council pay the campaign expenditures of those candidates who want to run again in the fall ASSC presidential election. The court recommended not to reimburse candidates for their expenses in the invalidated spring election.
The court, in a meeting Friday, apparently held the council responsible for errors committed by the Elections Commission, a council-appointed body, which led to the invalidation of the presidential election. To the court, this constituted malfeasance by the council.
The council will meet today at 3 p.m. in the Student Activities Center to consider whether to reimburse all the candidates who participated in the invalidated election, or to finance the campaigns of the candidates in the fall election. The council can also vote not to pay anyone anything at all.
Lee Blackman, vice-president for academic affairs, said that the ASSC may not have the necessary money. He described the reimbursement as an unanticipated expense.
The case was brought before the court
